This edition of the podcast features a talk given by Psychotherapist Valarie Watson who has a personal and particular interest in ethnicity race and culture as it relates to the counselling relationship. Valarie Watson will talk about the role of the black expert which is a way of thinking about how in certain situations black people are put in the role of being experts in themselves or required to give the defining view on what it means to be black. Valarie is using the context of counselling to explore the impact of the black expert, and the ways in which her role as a catalyst can offer challenges and a learning opportunity for all.
